My feet for the past week are getting more and more swollen......today I couldn't even wear my shoes after work...so I left my classroom wearing the big comfy slippers I wear in there daily.....lol
Any things to help......
I drink soo much water daily, ice them at night and keep them elevated...........Midwife said really not much I can do!
Here is DH ice wrap job.....lol...he is the best!

That's pretty much all I can think of. One good thing is to try and keep them elevated during the day, or make an effort to get up and walk around a bit during the day.
But...for me, the only thing that reduced the swelling was having a baby ;). Good luck!

@FaithFertility: Yeahhhhh, mine was the opposite - I sat all day, so the fluid just settled.

@FaithFertility: I had to wear compression stockings with my last pregnancy (only knew about them from being in healthcare). They made a big difference!

I tried everything. The only thing that helped was having the baby

My feet were *huge* during pregnancy. So big I was embarrassed to wear capris when it was 85 outside. Nothing worked until I finally had the baby.
No real advice, just commiserating!

With my last pregnancy my feet were HUGE! I could barely wear shoes, and the swelling didn't go down right away either. I think it was a good week before I lost all that water weight. I never found anything that worked, besides keeping them elevated.
